1) Hardcover Book The Last Alarm: The History and Tradition of Supreme Sacrifice in the Fire Departments of New York City by M.T. Publishing Company, Inc.. This is a tribute to the brothers and sisters who have suffered line of duty deaths in the FDNY. The authors spent hours poring over old records and newspaper archives to make the first comprehensive list of these ever in NYC. Each member has a discrete entry with a little story attached and photo if that was found.
For quite a few of the members this is their quite overdue first 5-5-5-5 (5-5-5-5 is the last alarm signal transmitted in memoriam over the city alarm system when a firefighter dies) as their deaths had not been officially been recognized by the city as in the line of duty due to clerical errors or carelessness.
Proceeds go to the FDNY Foundation.
¤ 2) Hardcover Book The Last Alarm: The History and Tradition of Supreme Sacrifice in the Fire Departments of New York City by M.T. Publishing Company, Inc..

The book is authored by Gary Urbanowicz, Michael Boucher and Frederick Melahn, Jr. The book provides vital information on the tragic circumstances of each death, documents the traditions of the FDNY, and ensures that we will never forget the sacrifices of the FDNY´s fallen members.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
